Yup, I sure missed that one!

 

[Laurie]

Another glaring example of the average American's disinterest in world affairs!

What's a spurtle? The guess that thing in the picture is a spurtle, but I still can't tell what it is.

Thanks for bringing that to our attention. Actually I never heard of it, guess I'm just one of those average Americans!

I never knew there was a porridge making contest and I live here! I do eat porridge every morning though.

 

[Buckeye]

USA! USA! USA!

I need to work on my spurtle skills I guess

 

[Laurie]

A spurtle is the device used to stir the porridge.

It's just a wooden stick really, but where's the mystique in that?
